    Israel stated the war 17 years ago, minimum.

    Blockades are acts of war.

    This argument is the adult equivalent of grabbing someone's hand and punching them in the face with it while saying "stop hitting yourself"

    You should be embarrassed for even making this argument.

      Israel stated the war 17 years ago, minimum.
